What is αSTEP?
Since it's launch, the αSTEP has been used in a wide range of industries and applications from factory automation (FA), semiconductors, electronic component manufacturing equipment to medical equipment. The demand for motors is diversifying as automation, which replaces human work, accelerates at an unprecedented rate. αSTEP is a product that keeps up with the changing times to continue to meet the needs of customers.

αSTEP Products Line-up
The product range covers a variety of devices, controls and systems. In addition to standard type motors, geared motors, electric actuators combined with motors and mechanical components are also available. The driver line-up includes products compatible with various Factory Automation (FA) networks. By selecting motors and drivers of the same series in the equipment, wiring, control and maintenance parts can be standardised, reducing start-up time and effort.
